Lyrics for When I Met You

When I met you I saw the future of the future and what to do Cna you see me now I'm more than willing and I want to be your pal Life's crooked hand Has already pushed us back together again I want you awful now And I'm worrying how you see me plain Do you really really have to know my name Time marches on The parade and the charade keeps turning round I look for you In every book in every cartoon movie too I saw the past Tomorrows always go they never really last I found the truth ANd I swear it nearly flipped me through the roof I broke through fate But every time I would up being sort of late When I met you I saw the future of the future and what to do ------------------------------------------------------------------------------
